  1. Depends on how far you would be willing to travel, just had a wee googley and there's a place called cams performance in blackburn who reckon they are scoob specialist so might ne worth a phone call, not sure what they like though so can't recommend them, maybe someone on here has come across them before 👍
  2. Agreed the classic is looking ace mate 👍, the bug is looking top notch aswell 😎👍
  3. I would say defo go for it, i got my classic mapped a couple of months ago and what a difference its like night and day and its also using a little less fuel when just pottering about and as @Tidgy says as long as its done properly you should have no problems at all. I'm the same as you and live out in the sticks so had to travel to glasgow to get it done but it was well worth it 😉👍
  4. I would agree with mambas last post it does sound like the rear fog is getting a live feed from somewhere, have you tried pulling the fuse for the rear fog while the normal lights are on to see if it still stays on 😉👍
  5. Thats as near as makes no difference 1000miles since i done the head gaskets and got mapped and i'm happy to report not one bit of oil or coolant has been used, the car pulls really well in all gears and boosts as it should so all in all i'm really happy with the results 😉👍
  6. Welcome to the club mate 😉👍
  7. Welcome to the club mate thats a tidy leggy 😉👍
  8. Welcome to the club mate nice looking motor you have there 😉👍
  9. Welcome to the club mate thats a nice looking blobeye 😉👍
  10. Welcome to the club mate 👍, i agree with Geoff the white one is lovely 😉👍
  11. RA motorsport in perth have a good rep mate could give them a shout 😉👍
  12. Did you manage to get to the bottom of this mate also i see your in falkirk just up the road from me, I've got a mate who lives in stenhousemuir who has a blobeye sti type uk 😉👍
  13. Welcome to the club mate nice looking motor you have there 😉👍
  14. No problem buddy, i would say though its all about personal choice i know a few folk that have switchable maps so really its what ever takes your fancy 😉👍
  15. Welcome to scotland mate Glasgow is a wonderful city with great people with a great sense of humour 😉, i would say head up to loch lowmond and the trossachs as there's some cracking roads and scenery and its not that far outside of Glasgow also if you fancy a run even further up north head up the north west by fort William theres a place called applecross and theres only two ways to get there a boring A road or a tight twisty mountain road with tunnels through the hills but take a couple of jerry cans as theres no petrol stations out that way, scoobs sound awesome through the tunnels 😉👍
  16. Ah sorry for the misunderstanding tidgy i thought it was called live mapping thats my inexperience showing yet again but i'm learning, i will know for the future now, cheers buddy 👍
  17. I'm relatively inexperienced when it comes to this and to the cobb access port however i've just had my classic mapped and when speaking to the mapper before hand i had two choices go with an esl board or get a new standalone ecu with the latter able to have various maps so you can switch between high and low boost e.g have a stock map then when the feeling takes you you can switch to the custom high boost map also the standalone came with motorsport features like antilag and launch control, i went for the esl because i really don't need those features and the esl doesn't have switchable maps again something i don't need as long as my engine is running safe i'm happy, i would say though get a custom map done specifically to you're engine instead of some generic map 😉👍
  18. Feel for you mate 🙁 fecking to**ers now is it no respect or just jealousy i suppose we will never know
  19. Really good to see it back bud 👍, its looking brilliant they've done a fantastic job 😉👍
  20. Thanks guys, i picked it up last night as had to leave it with the mapper on Tuesday night as the ecu that got sent from esl seemed to be faulty it kept losing connection with his laptop and he wasn't happy to do the mapping session so he got another ecu sent, @Tidgy i haven't got a power graph as been live mapped so not sure how he knew what power its making unless it shows him on his laptop ( this is the first time i've had a motor mapped) or he was just trying to make me feel good after all the stress i've been through having to leave the car with him, however it does pull really well in all gears and it's never missed a beat since i got it back and i've already been through a tank of vpower, I'll have a look out to see if there's any rolling road sessions going on around my area and get the scoob on the dyno and see how its going but i do trust the guy especially with what was sitting in his workshop being prepped for mapping and he had done over 60miles in my car during mapping There was six of them sitting getting prepared for fast road. So all in all i'm really happy with whats been done . @savage bulldogs i did try the old its fathers day trick but got told the kids don't love me that much haha 😂, the little ungrateful buggars never even got me a card I'll remember that when they are wanting new stuff lol 😉👍
  21. It seems to be something to do with IG off detected whilst driving whatever that is, sorry i can't be of any help but that's why it will be going into limp mode, i would try subaru and see if they can shed any light on it 😉👍
  22. Thats my classic v1 been mapped at last after all my time and effort over the winter pulling the engine and replacing head gaskets and other stuff, got live mapped on esl and it managed 302.6bhp at 1.25 bar mapper said only thing holding it back is the intercooler as when trying to run higher boost it was starting to knock so had to peg it back, i'm chuffed as f**k and so is the wee man 😉👍
  23. Welcome to the club mate nice looking motor you have there 😉👍
  24. I had the same problem with the uprated coilpack i just fitted to my classic and i used a couple of little cable ties to hold the plug securely onto the coil, i know its a bit of a jungle repair but it seems to be holding 😉👍
  25. Nice one mate glad to hear you've got to the bottom of it and i feel your pain i've not had the burble and boost for a while now as had the engine out but getting mapped on tuesday so getting pretty excited i can just about taste the v-power 👍😉
